Jason Richter, assistant dean of students for activities, leadership and service, said that almost 49 percent of the campus took the survey. The goal was for 50 percent participation. Richter would like to thank all those who took the survey and said the results will be available no later than Aug. 19.

Six students who completed the survey were randomly selected to receive prizes. Bryan Kujawa, Sarah Weir and Paula Angst won $100 gift cards to Barnes and Noble, Cierra Lopis won the highest housing priority for her class, Kelly Olson won the opportunity to take a service trip without paying the fee and Zhe (Scott) Song won a dinner with Brother William, SMU president.

Vlazny Hall had the highest percentage of participants and will receive a pizza party.

Richter said there will likely be a presentation of the data at a Student Senate meeting in the fall.
